Cops: Ex-boyfriend held Yuba City woman, son captive since NYE

A Colusa man faces a slew of charges after police say he held a Yuba City woman and her son captive for 10 days.

About 11 p.m. Dec. 31, the woman sat in her car, in the 500 block of Clay Street -- with her 3-year-old son asleep in the back seat -- when Jermaine Lonell Roberts forced her to drive to his home, according to a news release issued Friday by the Colusa Police Department.

Roberts lives on Oak Street, just outside city limits, police said.

He held the 33-year-old woman at the house for several days, along with her son.
